Question regarding DS - 156 formfor visa revalidation

Update Regarding Electronic DS-156 Form

The Visa Office informs that, in all cases--at posts and during the remaining tenure of the revalidation unit--the electronic form available at http://evisaforms.state.gov (which generates a bar code on the first and third page when printed) is preferred, but NOT required. The electronic form can be used,as it saves time (someone including consular officers at posts) from having manually to input DS-156 data. In any event, make sure that you are using the most current version of the form, which as of this writing is February 2003.

>> I have the above-metioned bar-coded application with me that has a few unfilled fileds .. Can I fill these by hand and submit them at the consulate?? or should I fill in a new application all over again?

.>> What should I fill in the fields that are empty ? ( n/a or na or -or leave blank)

I currently live and work in the US.. what should I put in these fileds??

item 14. National Identification NUmber ( Is this the soc sec nummber)?
item 22. when do you intend to arrive in the U.S?
item 26. How long do you intend to stay in the US?
item 27 What is the purpose of your trip?
item 28. Who wil pay for your trip?
